Collectible coins encompass various types, including representations from different denominations and historical contexts. The United States five-cent nickel, often referred to as the Buffalo Nickel, was minted from 1913 to 1938, featuring a depiction of a Native American on the obverse and a buffalo on the reverse. The 1936 Buffalo Nickel, particularly those struck in San Francisco (marked with an "S"), is highly sought after by collectors for its design and relatively low mintage compared to other years. Additionally, half dimes, which were minted before the introduction of the nickel, also attract numismatic interest, representing an important era in American coinage history.
